Minor corrections and improvements
Support of client certificates for SSL/TLS connections
This version of Glink supports the use of client certificates for SSL/TLS connections. PSKC #12 certificates (.p12 files) can be imported into Glink's certificate store and used for connections to SSL/TLS servers.
Improved external keyboard/scanner handling
This version has been improved when it comes to handling of physical keyboards and external scanners.
Encrypted communication with GlinkProxy
This version introduces support for encrypted communication with GlinkProxy, meaning that it will be unreadable to people using network analyzers.
